This will be painfull. As an old times fan there are characters I never liked, less, I'd killed them, wiped them away from the MOTU mitology. First of them all...Orko, always hated that useless bag of bugs, tipical tv enlighter for us "children in distress from tv violence"! AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!
Well, in the italian forum much fan asked me for Orko, so I did this
No floatin' bag of trash, but a Raistlyn like misterious wizard from another dimension, not powerfull as Skeletor but resourcefull enough to give him a headache. He's ironic and misterious, this make him untrustly to MAA, who see him as a aimless bullet, and believes him to have a secret agenda of his own...much better, isn't it?

What can I say? Mommies 's always right! Oh yeah....

Oh, yes, almost forgot.
Now I'll give name to those characters I'll never like and never draw...so please, don't ask me.
First of all, Rio-blast, damn, really none of you can see? He's Chuck Norris!

No really, a far west cowboy shooter on a barbaric, fantasy-oriented world?
He's totally out of place, put him on the NA o in the Bravestarr roster, but not here, in my loved Eternia!
Snout-spout, he's ricolous, the search for new action-features drove Mattel's creatives too far...worst, there was many ways to make him better than he was.
Extendar, too ...uh, dunno, he doesn't looks like a MOTU, a NA wannabe.
Blast-attack...I was wrong, the search for new action-features can go wronger...
The twistoids...do I need to say something?
What drives me mad is that the Grayskull museum is full of schetches of wonderfull action-figures that were never made!

***Please no double posting, or back to back posting or needless thread bumping.***

Hey, thank'you very much! I'm embarassed!
Which is the bios you like and which not?

You are most welcome! I didn't mean I dislike any of the bios. I meant that in my eyes most are just perfect. As you said yourself, Trap-Jaw's bio needs a little more to it, but I have no suggestions, sorry. Fisto's backstory could use a bit more - as a child I loved the UK-story about those bat-monsters. In that story Fisto had hard time socialising at the Queen's birthdayparty and he felt totally out of place. I personally kinda have grewn to that version of him; a brute warrior for north who's a bit unsocial. And Sy-Clone's backstory could use a bit more too. I like the air elemental bit, but should there then be other elementals (earth, fire, ether?) too, or something?

Thank's and thank's again to you all, now I'd like to post this one.
This guy is based on a custom made by Chrysbrian, what do you think?
If you ask me, Mattel should have produced more basic figures than action-features-oriented-ones...just my opinion...

I haven't drawn King Hiss yet, be patient, he will join his vicious minions soon.

Love the Rattlor. He was one of the few figs I had as a kid.

( I think, after thinking carefully about it, the only figs I actually owned myself, were He-man, Skeletor, Rattlor and Horde Trooper. I think I also got Horde Trooper from a friend! One of my friends had almost every fig tho, and lots of play-sets. )

Something is a bit strange with Rattlors tail tho, why is it orange instead of the same red as the rest of him?

I'd love to see Clamp Champ next, I think. Another of my old faves. I like most of the later figs, that nearly no-one else likes. In fact, Snout Spout and Extendar are probably some of my all-time favorites, haha!

Well, what can I say, it's your lucky day, here comes Clamp-champ!!!
I like all over the version of a super atlete whit super sense Randor's bodyguard, in fact CC was one of the back to the basic figure of the last wave that made me hope for a better future...Only one thing, I'm an hystorical reenactor, I now the dinamics of a melee fight and that giant clamp is such a stupid weapon, luckily the character has charisma of his own.
Same as above, SG is a really cool both AF and character, and I bet he would be so even whitout the glowin' features.
In my MOTUverse SG is from Infinita like Skeletor and his "skull-features" is from his holding of his shyte that, like the havok staff, gives great powers but corrupt the flesh horribly. Of course Skeletor is much more powerfull than SG...

Thank's and thank's again to you all, now I'd like to post this one.

Which is based on a fan character by Org member Baena. (this character is Bae-Na btw) Great work
